From a psychological standpoint, if there's a "defined time" for anything you are much more likely to want to take part. Humans are actually wired to conform to a greater and lesser extent. By saying, "April 20th at 4:20PM you're supposed to smoke pot," people who already smoke it, even if it's just occasionally, are much more likely to. It's almost an excuse.
Conformity decreases the chance of exile from the tribe which would result in death, eh?
